I'm disappointed. I ordered the beef Bahn Mi and Singapore Noodles and something was missing...oh...flavour.
This was my first time trying Bahn Mi after the sandwich style was recommended by a friend from out of town. I found a restaurant relatively close by for lunch that served Bahn Mi. The overall sandwich sounded like it should be good but it just didn't hit home for me. It was fairly full of toppings, but just lacked any type of flavour.
I ordered Singapore Noodles in case I really didn't like the Bahn Mi, as I have had this dish several times at other establishments in town. Again, no flavour, no spice.

And they are very kind and polite for each customer no matter you ordering food or coming to pick up. Number 1 Vietnamese food in Ontario for sure! If you travelling passing Thunder Bay, you shall take a break for lunch or...
Read moreA Fresh, Flavourful Combo at Noodle Bowl served by July!
I had the Tofu with Veggie Spring Roll and paired it with fresh coconut juice, and the combo was nothing short of refreshing and satisfying!
The tofu was perfectly crispy on the outside and tender on the inside—flavored just right. The veggie spring rolls were fresh, light, and packed with crunchy vegetables, wrapped in soft rice paper. Dipped in their house sauce, they were chef’s kiss!
The coconut juice was the perfect finisher—chilled, naturally sweet, and incredibly refreshing. It balanced out the meal so well and made it feel like a tropical treat.
If you’re looking for a healthy, flavorful, and feel-good meal, this combo is a winner. July does it with love, and you can taste it in every...
